Imagista: Ok, so how about we talk about “Orange” first and then get into some other topics? How does it feel now that “Orange” is wrapped, to say goodbye to that chapter of your life?

Taylor Schilling: You know, it feels enlivening. There’s a surreal nature to be involved in something that has had a profound impact on a large number of people. I think I have a better perspective on the scope of “Orange” now than I ever have. I feel a tremendous amount of gratitude. I think that’s how I feel. It feels ready to be over, from my perspective. I’m not a creator on the show but in my capacity as an actor it feels like it was a really good run. And it feels really exciting, and the world feels different. It feels exciting to be able to see the horizon again. For seven years the rhythm of one’s life was around the TV show. We’d have six months to eight months in production and then six to eight months off. So there was this built in rhythm.

So it’s so wild and exciting now to just be able to see the horizon. It feels like the possibilities are limitless again. It’s very exciting.

Imagista: In terms of moving forward and your future how are you approaching things? Are you a goal setter, are you more intuitive, or are you a combination of the two?

Taylor Schilling: I have a sense of what I want to do next but it’s a pretty strange mix. I can have a sense of directors, or stories, or parts I want to work with or bring to life. But I also have this very strong belief that the part will find me. I try to listen more than plan and to listen and to pay attention to the signs. What is also a part of figuring out what comes next is experiencing life as deeply as I can.

Imagista: A few of your friends and peers from “Orange” have gotten into directing. Is that something that appeals to you as well or might you want to write or produce eventually?

Taylor Schilling: I don’t have that much of an interest in directing television. I do have colleagues on the show who are just brilliant directors and I’m really excited about that.

More than anything right now I’m curious about creating a container for work to happen and that looks more like producing to me. I’m interested in finding stories and voices that I can amplify. That feels very exciting to me.

I really enjoy messing around with character. It’s really fun for me. It also feels necessary for me. It feels necessary in a way that producing or writing doesn’t feel as much.

I’m exploring my own writing in ways that I haven’t done before. It is so difficult for me to express myself, as I want to, through the written word. And I’m writing more than I ever have. It feels like an important exercise even though I don’t know what will happen with it.

I’m writing for myself. Writing is like another way for me to listen to myself and to make it easier to hear what’s going on. So that’s what my writing has been like, as of late, and I don’t know what that will parlay into. I think there’s a lot of value in not knowing for me and then allowing for things to happen on their own.

Imagista: You like to read a lot right? What are you reading at the moment and do you have some recommendations?

Taylor Schilling: There’s this writer named Rachel Cusk. I’m just starting to read her. She has a trilogy of novels. The first one is called “Outline”, the second one is called “Transit” and the third one is called “Kuddos”. I’ve been really enjoying those novels. Rachel has a really piercing insights and I’m really struck by her prose. She’s also brilliant with structure. She structures things in an unprecedented way. She writes beautiful stuff.

I’ve also been spending more time with poetry than I have in the past. I’m the kind of person who will go into a bookstore and see what literally with jump out at me. There’s a poet called Ariana Reines that I’ve found mind-blowing lately. I also just re-read the “The Alchemist” by Paolo Coelho which is a classic and that’s been helpful. There’s another poet who I’ve found very transformative named Ada Limon.

Imagista: What is front and center for you right now, in terms of projects?

Taylor Schilling: I’m being more cautious now than I’ve ever been. I spent several years making a variety of different films. Right now what’s front and center for me is waiting for the right thing that feels great. I think It’s necessary to take beat (break) when you become so identified with a character. I think it might require a moment, a reset, both for me and for other people. I am incredibly determined to keep working in new ways. I think what I’m doing is taking a minute to ready myself for that.

Imagista: What, if anything, are you going to miss about life in and around “Orange”?

Taylor Schilling: Without a doubt what I will miss the most is the people. That was what remained consistent throughout. Even as the show changed dramatically, and as writers changed, and storylines changed, and characters changed, there was a real core band of comrades and I’ll be forever grateful for that. That will never go anywhere. That core group that went through this wild process together. That’s what I’ll miss without a doubt.

After seven wonderful seasons, ‘Orange Is the New Black’ , the most popular Netflix series ever, finally came to an end at the end of July. The doors of the popular women’s prison Litchfield fell for the very last time in the lock, meaning that actress Taylor Schilling had to say goodbye to her character Piper Chapman and her orange outfit. Please note: the odd person who has not seen the first six seasons will bump into spoilers.

Taylor Schilling «I started my career with a series of flops. For my first film I was allowed to go on the set with Meryl Streep , but the project was canceled. I then played in the NBC series ‘Mercy’, but he only sung it for one season. The many scenes that I played as Ben Affleck’s wife in ‘Argo’ were almost all cut in the editing room. You understand that I started ‘Orange Is the New Black’ with low expectations (laughs).

»I am grateful for the many fans who have supported us for seven seasons. It has changed our lives forever, and I hope the series of politicians has made us aware of the flaws in the American prison system. ”

– How was the very last day on the set?
Schilling «Bittersweet. It was also Laura ‘s last day ( Prepon , who plays Alex Vause, ed.). We started the series together and completed them together. I will miss the cast enormously. We all agreed so well. We laughed and danced during the recording, some rap battles have even taken place.
»But at the same time it was high time to close this story. I am excited to start something new. I look forward to having a blank agenda and to fill it in with new challenges. I am taking acting lessons again and in the meantime I am looking forward to an exciting project. »

– In the seventh season, Piper is no longer behind bars. She tries to pick up her life outside the prison again, but that is not going smoothly.Schilling «I have spoken with various female ex-prisoners about their return to society. They told me how overwhelming it was to suddenly be free again. One of them was unable to leave her own bedroom for days: she only felt safe in a closed room. It is not because you are released that you are actually free. Piper has difficulty adjusting. But she also learned something from her time in prison: she finally stands up for herself. »

– Piper married Alex at the end of the sixth season. But Piper is free and Alex is still stuck. Is there a bright future ahead of them?Schilling «That’s the question the series asks in the last season: how strong can love be? I think Alex is the one for Piper, but does she feel that way? »
